Next week, Conan O’Brien’s Conan talk show on TBS will present “George Harrison Week” in honor of the upcoming release of George Harrison: The Apple Years 1968 -75. Each of O’Brien’s musical guests is expected to perform a George Harrison song on the show. The lineup for next week’s shows has been announced and we’re impressed with the talent the show has put together to honor Harrison.

On Monday’s episode Beck will kick off George Harrison Week, which will be followed by a performance from Paul Simon on Tuesday night and Dhani Harrison and Friends on Wednesday. The tribute concludes on Thursday night with a performance from Norah Jones. There’s no word on who will join George’s son Dhani on Wednesday night yet. Simon collaborated with George for a pair of songs broadcast on Saturday Night Live in 1976.

Watch Paul Simon & George Harrison perform “Homeward Bound” on Saturday Night Live:
